Is any one interested in a news article I read about extracting oil from algae? It's still in the works, but the news might be interesting. Go to Russell Gold, the author, at russel.gold@wsj.com

I have a question and an idea:
The question: What are some of the numbers or websites I can contact to get hold of people who could weatherize our home, which was built in 1961? Any leads?
The idea: Possibly advocate legislators for people who p...
Dear Micah,
Thanks for your letter and how organized it is! I am using it for my first email to my congresspeople. The second email I am going to send (today) is going to include the Pickens Plan talking points. I appreciate your help in this Vir...

Virtual March on Washington at Online
April 1, 2009 to April 3, 2009

So what is a "Virtual March"?
We are going to utilize the size and unique capabilities of the New Energy Army to have an enormous impact on the White House ...
Profile Information
- Are you interested in becoming an organizer in your area?
- Maybe--But Not Sure What to Organize
- Tell us about your experience with alternative energy:
- Solar panels really helped in reducing power bills in San Jose, CA but am unsure they would help in Portland, OR. It is rainy and cloudy many days of the year in Portland, OR
- What excites you about this campaign?
- I think finding alternative energy would help us become less dependent or independent of the oil in the Middle East. If we could break away from them, think of the options we would have that we don't have now!
- What do you want to do to help?
- I am pretty much limited to email-advocating and writing a few letters. I care for a disabled husband and I am disabled (but not disabled enough to type 74 wpm) myself. Our income is limited and so is my time.My husband required a great deal of care.

So, in answer to your question, the Virtual March on Washington is our big Pickens Plan Army project. The date of the Virtual March is April 1 - 3.
Thank you for signing up.
